“Thank God Dingle - berry has retired.”
But his “much younger (@59) wife” has succeeded him, so Michigan has just refilled the toilet with a younger turd.
There was a civility to that generation that its successors have not inherited. Unfortunately. It’s not just Congress, either. Civility in our society has deteriorated (almost) to the point of no return. Hopefully things will be better for our grandkids.

There is no fixing stupid. Shame on the voters of Michigan.
“There is no fixing stupid. Shame on the voters of Michigan.”

Very well said......
Dingleberry is a disgrace to the “greatest generation”.
You’re right and it’s sad. While the men and woman of today carrying on traditions of our great military, the life these young men and woman is a world away from that that most of the WW2 generation lived. If was just a very different America. My late father-in-law, 4th. Marine Division once sent to an orphanage because his parents just really couldn’t afford to feed him and his six other siblings so he joined the Marine Corps after pearl harbor. He didn’t have much in the way of education but he became a Gunnery Sargent and survived Saipan( where he was first wounded) Tinian and Iwo Jima where he was seriously wounded but that got him the hell out of there. My dad was 13 when the war broke but he had older cousins who served in the Navy, one on the cruiser USS Santa Fe and I’ve spoken before many times of the last of my uncles who passed away two years ago, my Uncle Fred, the son of Polish immigrants who served with the 84th. Inf. Div. during the Battle Of The Bugle and was also severely wounded but made it home. I think those men had the fortitude they did because they just didn’t have so much of the materialism, wealth and opportunity so many kids have today.Doesn’t make todays generation bad, per se, probably just more of a feeling of entitlement as opposed to earning respect and advancement thorough merit and hard work. But I think over all the majority of young Americans are good kids.
“And why not? The current generation doesnt seem to want to have much of anything to do with it.”
Well, can’t blame them. They were left with a tyrannical mess that does not respond to the people anymore.
GOODBYE SOCIALIST!
The “Great War” was World War I, but I suppose anyone can be a journalist these days.
